The one and only golden sold! As soon as the transaction is complete I will donate to the fund. Plenty of red ones left for those interested!

Initially when I made this ad for the NH Gazette I just had a snapshot of letters that wouldn’t decode to anything meaningful. Just as an example of the code. But thinking about it a bit more I wanted it to be something that people could actually decode when they understood the encryption. So I pulled out my Python code again and actually encrypted a message for this version of the ad. Hopefully it gets people interested!

This is an ad I made for the NH Gazette. It is the country’s oldest newspaper which happens to be based out of where my story is located.

@bfgreen I created a little worksheet to help with some of the mechanics of solving my Bell’s Codex puzzle. Everyone is still stumped and I wanted to offer some sort of clues without just giving up the answer. Not sure if you’re still interested but have a look if you like!

Analog hit triple digits today, just coming up on four weeks from its release. It isn’t my most streamed song but it is the fastest one of my songs has hit this milestone. If you haven’t had a dose of analog vibes in your life yet, check out my new song!

I have been off social media for a while now. (Except to pop onto now and again to say hi.) My motivation for using it was to tell people about my art. It never really amounted to much, and I have taken a step back from the digital world.

Today I made an “analog” social media post. I went to a coffee shop, did a quick sketch of Amsterdam, wrote my website address on the back and left it on a table. Much more satisfying than anything Meta or Musk can offer. And I even got coffee!

Really proud of my new song, Analog. Had a positive reception from musicians I respect. Curators on submithub listened to it multiple times before responding (vs like 20s with previous submissions). It hadn’t blown up or anything, play-wise but one thing I’m really proud of is that it has been added to 13 playlists! That hasn’t happened to any other song I’ve made. Something feels right about this track that I haven’t felt with my other music.

I turned our old swing set into play structure for my kids! Got a bit of help from my neighbor tying the rope ladder, but I designed it and built it myself!

I often look at the Apple news app as I’m falling asleep. I saw this and was like “yeah it’s time to go to bed.” Goodnight .

Hope you had a nice day everyone! We were out enjoying the sun! Lots of good vibes in this part of the world!
